At an Ontario pedestrian crossover (PXO), drivers and cyclists must:
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians in the crossover
A PXO is a designated crossing where pedestrians have absolute right-of-way. Drivers and cyclists must stop and yield whenever a pedestrian is crossing — no hand signal or eye contact is required. PXOs are painted with zebra stripes and accompanied by overhead signs.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A.Yield the right-of-way only if the pedestrian signals with a raised handOntario law does not require pedestrians to signal; the driver must yield as soon as any pedestrian is in or entering the crossover.
- C.Proceed first because vehicles have priority on roadwaysVehicles do not have priority at a PXO; this reverses the legal right-of-way.
- D.Sound the horn before entering the crossoverHonking near pedestrians is startling and unsafe; yielding is the correct — and legally required — response.
